Dr. Peterson is not an alt-right ideologue or the paragon of reasonable left he claims to be. He’s an interesting and complicated in-between.
The best Travis McGee novel since the original, if you ask me. It treads a lot of new ground.
Ross MacDonald was undeniably talented, but was he really a mystery novelist?
In the glory years of world-weary private detectives, there was this dude writing about a bunch of cops.
The fourth Travis McGee novel is somewhat of a curve ball. It’s one of these books you need to be already into the character to appreciate.
The Cool & Lam mysteries aren’t exactly elating, but they’re a reliable form of entertainment.
Erle Stanley Gardner was once the best-selling American author. Why have we forgotten all about him?
I hated myself for loving this book. But I did love the hell out of it.
There’s a lot of what makes Chuck Palahniuk fantastic in that book. A little too much of it.
A fragmented and challenging novel from the French professor, but one that reveals the audience to itself as much as it reveals its characters.
Doubinsky’s greatest talent is on display here: he’s remapping the way you think about the world.
Crash is the novel about people fucking in car crashes. It’s disturbing, low-key terrifying and prescient.
Cabal is one of Clive Barker’s most reputable books, but is it because it’s good or just more accessible?
The Jay Porter novels are a great example of novels growing within set boundaries. They are one of the finest series running today.
The third novel in the Richard Dean Buckner series is quite the tonal shift from its predecessors, but it’s great for that it is.
Quite the tonal shift for C.S DeWildt with Suburban Dick, but the heir apparent to Jim Thompson still has it.
So, I’ve read another YA novel by accident, but this one is interesting because it nails how young men think.
I enjoyed the heck out of Drift, but it’s not a book I can straightforwardly recommend. You need to figure out for yourself if it’s meant for you.
Long story short: this is the best novel I’ve read in 20178, so far. It’s not perfect, but it has such a bold moral stance that I’m cool with imperfections.
Another nuanced, precise and sophisticated novel for William Boyle. Fans of his debut novel Gravesend will be all over The Lonely Witness.
